Special Effect Contacts... where do you buy them?

Post by Amanda on Tue Oct 04, 2011 12:14 pm

I have a customer looking for the red eye contact lenses... anyone know where to get them? I know I've heard that there are some cheap ones available but that they might be dangerous to wear for long periods of time. It's for a teenager so I don't want to recommend any that aren't good quality. Thanks for the help!

This company only sells contacts so I would hope they would be aware of any safety issues.

I just asked this question last week. What I've found is that you need a prescription. If you just buy the ones from China, you might damage your eyes because they aren't made to fit your eyes Wink If he has a prescription, he can purchase them online or at his local doctor.
